According to the police arrest log, warrants had been issued for Mr. Matthews' arrest assault, robbery and firearms charges.

Police said earlier this week the victim was shot in the left thigh and groin, and was in stable condition.

Police had said they were looking for the shooter after the arrest of Francesca Fresolo on Monday night. Ms. Fresolo, 21, of 19 Sturgis St., the daughter of former state representative John Fresolo, allegedly drove the vehicle involved in the confrontation, which took place in the rear of the American Legion Post at 180 Greenwood St. Authorities called the shooting an attempted drug robbery.

Ms. Fresolo allegedly told police she obtained the help of an "unnamed suspect" to help with the robbery. She is being held without bail until a dangerousness hearing Friday.

Prosecutors in March dropped assault and robbery charges against Mr. Matthews when the man he allegedly stabbed and slashed, Christian Castro, asserted his Fifth Amendment privilege against testifying. Mr. Castro at that point was awaiting trial on a murder charge out of Framingham. Police alleged that Mr. Matthews and an accomplice robbed Mr. Castro in April 2013 in the Outlook Drive area.
